[U-Boot-Users] Newbie needs help to build Uboot

Hi all,
I'm new to Uboot and Linux. I have a Taihu board and trying to build the firmware for this board.
I installed successfully ELDK from the CD included in the Eval Kit. I also downloaded "taihu_u-boot_src.tar.gz" from AMCC website and extracted it to a local directory.
When I tried to run "make ppc_config", I got the error message below:
"make: gcc: command not found" "make: ***: No rule to make target `ppc_config'. Stop."
I found gcc program under /ELDK/ppc_4xx/usr/bin. But when I went to this directory and tried to run gcc from there, it also said "gcc: command not found"
How can I fix this problem?
Thanks, Nhat Tran

Make sure the GNU C compiler is installed on your host system.
"make: ***: No rule to make target `ppc_config'. Stop."
Make sure to use the correct config name. "ppc_config" is pretty unlikely; I'd expect to see "taihu_config" here.
I found gcc program under /ELDK/ppc_4xx/usr/bin. But when I went to this directory and tried to run gcc from there, it also said "gcc: command not found"
This is the cross compiler.
Ummm... may I recommend to RTFM? The manual includes a section about the ELDK and it's correct use, and about how to configure and build U-Boot.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
